ways recently, went to l.andis' stables
about IL O'Clock last night and ordered

He went away, threatening to get pis-
tol and exact an apology In a few
minutes the clerk was surprised to see a

The PRINCES ARRIVE In IRELAND.
WELCOMED BY THE LOYAL SONS

DUBLIN, June 21.-The corporation
council of Dublin will hold aloof from
the ceremonies To be held tomorrow i'm
st. Patrick's Cathedral in honor of the
Queen Jubilee.
The Prince Albert Victor and Prince
George of Walss, accompanied by Capt.
Greviile. started from London this morn
ing To attend the ceremonies. Business
is conducted as usual and Dublin does
not seem to be- taking much of holiday
over the arrival of the princes. There is,
however. sufficient display of bunting
in the streets and of hustle among the
loyalists to indicate that there is public
interest in the event. The weather is
brilliant.
A military escort anil a number of
crown officials and prominent people
went to Kingstown to await the arrival
of the princes. Several steamers went
down the bay To meet and escort the
royal boat.
The Princes arrived at Kingstown at
the appointed time and were received
with great enthusiasm. Marquis of Lon
donderry, the Irish Viceroy, met them
and the town commissioners presented
them with an address. The Princes then
proceeded To Dublin. Upon their ar
rival here they were presented with an
address of welcome by the conservative
citizens. One Of the sentiments ex-
pressed in this address was as follows !:
I'VE welcome the grandsons of Her Ma
jesty, the Queen, under whom Ireland
has enjoyed blessings of just laws, true
liberty and constitutional good"
Prince Albert Victor responded to the
address and then he and his brother,
with their party and escort proceeded to
the Vice Regal Lodge. During the
journey of the princes through the
streets of Dublin there was much cheer
ing by the crowds. some cries of ''coer-
cion" and occasional cheering for Par

A PHENOMENON EXPLAINED.
How Dawho Lake Was Poisoned bv
Hail Storm.
New York Herald

COLUMBIA, =. c.. June 26.-The story
of the poisoning of Dawho Lake, George
town County, by a hail storm, as recently
described in the Herald, has been cor
roborated i'm every particularly prOmi
nent citizen of Georgetown, who has in
vestigated the matter at the request of
General Greedy, chief of tine Weather
Service.
A dense mass of black gum trees sur
round the lake on all sides. Ii is well
known that the leaves of these trees are
strongly impregnated with tannic acid.
1t has also been ascertained that the bot
tom of the lake contains a slight deposit
of iron. The poisoning of the water,
therefore, is thus explained: The hail
storm filled the lake with bruised leaves
and small branches from the trees, the
tannic acid emanating from which
mingled with the iron and formed tan
nate of iron, causing the water To turn
black as ink and bitter as quinine and
poisoning the fish by thousands.
One species of the fish inhabiting this
lake survived the singular disaster, and
that was the mud fish, which buried it,
self i'm the mud at the bottom and thus
escaped the effects of the poison.
The stencil arising from the mass of
dead and rotten fish is described as fear
full. The thousands of buzzar,ls i'm taking
their departure i'm the evening for their
roOsting place after a days feast are de
scribed as making a noise similar to that
of an approaching cyclone.
On each end of Dawho Lake. about
half mile distant, is small lake in
| which numbers of fish abound but which
upon examination show no signs of the
hail storm which swept over Dawho.
| This confirms the belief that the direct
cause OF the disaster to the fish is due tn
| the hail storm.

FRANCIS, FLA, June "a.
Have been much interested, with
others, in the valuable and instructive
articles published i'm THE NEWS, from
the pen of DIR. Schaffranek. And since
his reference to the Kelsey Japan plum,
l would like to add my testimony 10 the
merits of this wonderful fruit One
year last winter procured from nurs-
cry "A few trees and planted them ON
high and very poor pine land but fertil-
lied them well when planting. They
were from four Ia five feet high, and
with hut little top. BY the following
winter they We're from ten to twelve feet
high and with finely proportioned top.
This spring they all bloomed and some
were well loaded with fruit, and of enor-
nous size, from seven 10 seven and one
half inches i'm circumference. And even
they were not allowed Ia arrive at full
perfection. as the birds seemed as anx-
ious as ! was Ia sample them for quality.
Now l am assured from my experience
with them, of three things; First, the
tree grows well here and adapts itself Ia
our soil and climate. Second. that il is
quick and ready bearer. Third. IL is

valuable importations and rivaled only

qualities, wi ! make IL valuable for dry
ing purposes. and we may already antic-
ipate ''millions i'm it,"
have also fruite1 the Mariana plum.
and while the tree is exceedingly vigor-
Gus and of beautiful form and dense fo-
liage, the fruit is not better than some of
our best native sweet plums, hardly
equal to the wild goose for quality, but
more willing bearer.
l think the Mariana plum will make "A
good stock 10 bud or graft other plums or
peaches into. l have also been budding
several varieties of the tame cherry into

freely, but cannot report yet of their
growth or bearing qualities.

Mr. Armour valued his 1, 700 barrels of
pork at $50, ,O0O He said, with salvage
and insurance, he would come out even.
He was unable to give the amounts of
his insurance. The plant of the Chicago

valued at $500, ,0OO and stock at $1OO, 900.
A large portion of the stock in store be-

pany's two thousand employees will be
thrown of work. Fireman Thomas
Murphy died tonight.
ONE OF THE INJURED FIREMEN DEAD.
OF the firemen injured at yester-
days blaze at the stock yards, one died
last night and four more are in pre-
carious condition, being injured inter
nally and having broken limbs.
THE FIRE BREAKS OUT AGAIN.
At 1 O'Clock this morning flames broke
out afresh about the chill rooms of what
is known as the ''hutch" house. Under
the south chill rooms two million pounds
of prime pork We're picking in watts.
The contents of the chill rooms and watts
are valued at from $500. 900 to $3.50, 900.
A shaky wall was all that separated
this from the flames and the firemen had
to work harder than at any time during
the progress of the fire to prevent their
spread.
TEN STREAMS ON THE FLAMES.
At 3 o'clock the entire district was
still i'm a lurid glare, but the danger of
the north wall falling was passed. Ten
streams were directed at the burning
mass. 1t will require constant work for
forty weight hours to thoroughly extin-
guish the fire in the pork, the firemen
being relieved by the reserves.
